Purpose: In order to develop soy sauce and increase its functionality, by adding black garlic extract. Methods: We compared quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of 20 days aging black garlic soy sauce from mixed manufacturers with raw soy sauce (commercial fermented soy sauce) and different ratio of black garlic extract (65 Brix, 0.3-5.0%). Results: The salt content of the black garlic extract (0.3-5.0%) added soy sauce were 12.35-12.77%. The pH was lowered to 4.99, and acidity was increased to 2.12%, depending on the increase in black garlic extract added ratio. The crude protein and total nitrogen contents were 6.23-6.62% and 1.10-1.16%, respectively, and content of amino form nitrogen was 0.52-0.53%, without significant differences between experimental groups. Contents of reducing sugar and free sugars (fructose and glucose) tended to be higher with higher mixing ratios of black garlic extract. Total phenolic compounds and flavonoids contents were significantly increased in the 3% and 5% black garlic extract addition group. At concentrations of 62.5, 125, 250, 500, 1,000 and $2,000{\mu}g/mL$, the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity of the polysaccharides isolated from control soy sauce and 5% black garlic extract added soy sauce showed higher correlation with their concentration. Conclusion: These results, confirmed that the soy sauce produced by adding more than 3% of black garlic extract has high antioxidant activity.

This paper investigates the transmission of food as an intangible cultural heritage and tries to answer what maintains and promotes traditional food culture, though researching into the specific example of 'making traditional soy sauce.' For that, I chose three different cases to research into the continuation and change in the transmission of traditional soy sauce making. The first instance is when the informant makes traditional soy sauce by herself. The second example is when the informant makes traditional soy sauce with ready-made soybean lumps.The last case is that people sharing the same ideology about food organize a community('kye') and make soy sauce together each year and reserve 'seed soy sauce.' This is a new type of food community. The changes in tools and skills, in production and consumption, and in food communities caused changes in the transmission of traditional soy sauce making. Because of these factors, the way of making traditional soy sauce is changing a lot. The informants, however, believed that the tradition of 'making soy sauce' will last, as far as the taste of soy sauce made in the traditional method stays the same. Therefore, we need to make an effort to sustain communities of people who remember and enjoy the taste of traditional soy sauce in order to keep the tradition of making traditional soy sauce.

The aim of this study was to develop retorted samgyetang marinated with different levels of soy sauce and processed at different F₀ (thermal death time at 121℃) values. The tested marinade series comprised different percentages of soy sauce in water (0%, 25%, and 50% [w/w]) containing a fixed concentration of sodium tripolyphosphate (0.3% [w/w]). Following marination, samgyetang was prepared and subjected to retort processing, until an F₀ value of either 8 or 29 was achieved. Meat quality analysis of the breast meat, sensory evaluation, and aroma analysis were performed as indicators of acceptability. The meat pH decreased as the soy sauce content increased, regardless of the F₀ value. The shear force value significantly decreased as the concentration of soy sauce increased, but increased as the F₀ value increased (p < 0.05). Lipid oxidation was not affected by marination, but increased significantly as the F₀ value increased (p < 0.05). The proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids decreased significantly (p < 0.05) as the F₀ value increased. The total alkane content decreased as the F₀ value increased (p < 0.05). Changes in the total volatile sulfur compound and 2-butyl-1-octanol content were affected by soy sauce marination. Marination using 25% soy sauce and retort sterilization, until an F₀ value of either 8 or 29 was achieved, improved the acceptability of samgyetang. Therefore, marination using 25% soy sauce and retort sterilization until an F₀ value of 8 is the process recommended for developing a soy sauce-flavored, retorted samgyetang product of acceptable quality.

Soy sauce was prepared with the addition of Gorosoe and Kojesu saps instead of tap water to make ordinary soy sauce, respectively. The changes of free sugar, organic acid, mineral, amino acid and nucleotides and other compounds during the fermentation of soy sauce were assessed. The free sugar were found to be fructose, glucose, galactose and sucrose in soy sauce of saps but sucrose was not detected in ordinary soy sauce. Galactose contents were dominant free sugar in all samples. The contents of butyric acid were dominant among 7 kinds of organic acid while fumaric acid was trace amount during the fermentation of soy sauce. The contents of potassium and phosphorus among 13 kinds of minerals were dominant during the fermentation of soy sauce. In the amino acid composition of soy sauce, dominant amino acid was glutamic acid(185.6${\pm}$1.0 mg/100 ml above), but proline and arginine were not detected. AMP detected above 7.5${\pm}$O.2 ${\mu}$mol/100 ml was dominant while inosine was not detected during the fermentation of soy sauce. The results of sensory evaluation in the fermented soy sauce of Gorosoe was 'liked more' than that of soy sauce of Kojesu and control.

In order to investigate fermenting conditions and the microorganisms necessary for factory production of traditional Korean soy sauce, we manufactured soy sauce made by Bacillus species SSA3-2M1 and fused ST723-F31 with aeration (1/30 vvm, 113 vvm and 2/3 vvm) at $30^{\circ}C$ for 40 days. This method was chosen to investigate the changes of dissolved oxygen, pH, cell number, flavor and the taste components during fermentation. When air was supplied (2/3 vvm) to the fermentor during fermentation, the flavor of the soy sauce and the composition of taste components (free amino acids, free sugars and organic acids) were similar to that of traditional Korean soy sauce after 22 days. The results of our experiments indicates that the mass production of traditional Korean soy sauce is possible using Bacillus species SSA3-2M1 and fused ST723-F31 given sufficient aeration.

In this study, the quality characteristics of 30 kinds of long-term matured soy sauce collected from all over Korea classified according to ripening period were analyzed. The longer the soy sauce had to matured, the closer the pH was to neutrality. Acidity decreased as the ripening period increased. Total nitrogen and amino nitrogen content increased as the soy sauce matured. Moisture content decreased with the increasing soy sauce ripening period, and the content of pure extracts increased in proportion to the ripening period. The numbers of bacteria, fungi, and yeast increased in proportion to the maturation period. The content of P was highest in all soy sauce analyzed, followed by K, Ca, Mg, Fe and Zn. Mg and Ca contents decreased with maturing, whereas K increased with maturing.

This study was carried out in order to standardize the processing method of spiced soy sauce, to get the sensory scores for organoleptic properties in different cooking of each food items, and to analyze the microbiological and chemical properties during storage periods. In determining the optimum conditions for standardizing of spiced soy sauce, the best sensory score was found in the ratio of soy sauce to sugar of 1:0.7. In the result of microbial experiment on standardized spiced soy sauce, the stability of storage at 40$^{\circ}C$ up to 6 weeks was proved. The standardized spiced soy sauce which was composed of about 45.5% water, 6% crude protein, 11.7% reducing sugar and 32.1% invert sugar has not shown any significant difference during storage for 6 weeks at 40$^{\circ}C$ compared with the state immediately after processing. In the test of saltiness, specific gravity, viscosity and Hunter's color value, there was no notable change during storage at 40$^{\circ}C$. In the experiment of free amino acid and total amino acid, main amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid, which were not significantly changed during storage compared with processing state. In the analysis of mineral contents, sodium accounts for 95% of the total minerals, followed by phosphorus, magnesium, etc., in order, and there was no change during storage.

Gas formation, and container swelling and explosion during the distribution of commercial soy sauce is an important problem to be solved. Six yeasts were isolated from soy sauce returned because of container swelling. Three isolates (SS-1, SS-2, SP-1) formed film on soy sauce while others did not. Five isolates(SS-1, SS-2, SS-4, SP-1, SP-2) actively fermented soy sauce to produce gas and all were identified as Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, and one other isolate (SS-3) fermented soy sauce very weakly and was identified as Candida globosa.

Korean MEJUES were prepared by means of ordinary, Improved and compromised methods, and analyses of the changes in various chemical compositions of the Soy-sauces throughout the fermentation period of 10 weeks. Now, their result, are as the following as. (1) In all of the Soy-sauces under study the content of organic acids showed a slight increase upto 4 week, and a marked increased after this period. (2) In all of the soy-sauces the total nitrogenous content indicated a rapid increase until 4 weeks, and a slower increase after this. (3) In all of the soy-souses, the content of free amino acids displayed a liner proportional increament until 8 weeks and then slower increose. (4) In all of the soy-souses the content of reducing sugars indicated a slight increase until 4 weeks, and after this it showed a rapid decrease until 4 weeks, in the improved soy-souses and, then maintained an almost flat curve. In the ordinary and Compromised soy-souses there was a rapid decrease in reducing sugars until 6 weeks, and then an almost 리at curves. (5) In the ordinary soy-sauce the SAMWOL-ZANG-BUB(soy-sauce prepared in March) is considered to be based on a comparatively scientific ground during the fermentative period. (6) In order to improve the taste in ordinary soy-sauce it is favorable to delay the period of preparation. The adequate period appears requires 8 weeks at least. Accordingly it is recommended to mix the materials with carbohydrate source. (7) In the improved soy-sauce according to the SAMWOL-ZANG-BUB of ordinary soy-sauce it is thought that 8 weeks were adequate for the fermentation. (8) The compromised method may be recommended for the improvement of nomemade soy-souce, and it may be also superior to the ordinary soy-sauce in quality.
